[R-390] Bristol Spline Tool

[g4gjl]

They are very different and you should not attempt to use mismatched drivers
as they will fatally damage the screw sockets. (Either way round)

The best Bristol drivers commonly available are  Xcelite (Pronounced
zi-light) ...Get them from Mouser, Digikey or local equivalent tool store.

You will need a handle type99-1 and at least a driver type 99-66 for most
390 stuff. There are other drivers which will be useful for the smaller and
larger Bristol sizes, but I have found this is the most common size.
